@MarkMcFarlane29: Win win, could get a load of players back for the Burnley game which is a monster for the league position.

@MatthewMcMahon6: Just got to hope we don’t get any more called off. The only good thing is that it gives the injured players a little more time to get fit.

@Thmkn: If they cancel Burnley as well, I’ll cry.

@PmcSweeney05: Not ideal. Gotta cancel my flights and hotel now, but side before self is more important right now.
